Mandriva Linux Security Advisory 2011-010 - Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in xfig. Stack-based buffer overflow in the read_1_3_textobject function in f_readold.c in Xfig 3.2.5b and earlier, and in the read_textobject function in read1_3.c in fig2dev in Transfig 3.2.5a and earlier, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string some of these details are obtained from third party information. Stack consumption vulnerability in u_bound.c in Xfig 3.2.5b and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a long string in a malformed.fig file that uses the 1.3 file format, possibly related to the readfp_fig function in f_read.c. Stack-based buffer overflow in Xfig 3.2.4 and 3.2.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a FIG image with a crafted color definition.

Package : xfig
Date : January 15, 2011
Affected: 2009.0, 2010.0, 2010.1, Corporate 4.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in xfig:
Stack-based buffer overflow in the read_1_3_textobject function in
f_readold.c in Xfig 3.2.5b and earlier, and in the read_textobject
function in read1_3.c in fig2dev in Transfig 3.2.5a and earlier,
allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string
in a malformed .fig file that uses the 1.3 file format. NOTE:
some of these details are obtained from third party information
(CVE-2009-4227).
Stack consumption vulnerability in u_bound.c in Xfig 3.2.5b and earlier
allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application
crash) via a long string in a malformed .fig file that uses the 1.3
file format, possibly related to the readfp_fig function in f_read.c
(CVE-2009-4228).
Stack-based buffer overflow in Xfig 3.2.4 and 3.2.5 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute
arbitrary code via a FIG image with a crafted color definition
(CVE-2010-4262).
